Is there really a God - the Creator?

---

There is a creator who created the entire universe. But who created the creator? No one; otherwise, they would not be called a creator.

The creator, aka God, created the world we live in. The book of Genesis in the Bible provides amazing details of God's 7-day creation.

Day 0: The entire space and time were empty. Earth had no form but then there was water. Today NASA space exploration discovered that not only on the Earth, there is water almost everywhere, such as Mercury, Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Enceladus, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto, Ceres, Kuiper Belt, Oort Cloud, and Comets. Water is an amazing object. Water is the best solvent for all nutrients and chemicals. It has three very different phases (ice, liquid, and vapor) to allow itself traveling around the globe (called Hydrological Cycle) and distributing nutrients to every corner of the earth. No water, no life.

Day 1: God created light - the most important and amazing object in the universe:

1. Light travels at a speed (300 million m/s) much, much faster than all the objects on earth so that we can see the light reflecting from the object before we bump into it.

2. Light appears to be white in color but when it travels through a triangular prism, it exhibits a full spectrum of colors. This is how we see rainbows in the "wet" sky. Also, different objects absorb different portions of the light and reflect the remaining portions of the light to create a very colorful world we see today. 

3. Light has dual properties. It behaves like particles and also like waves, depending on how you look at it.

4. The most weird thing is, when two light particles are "entangled", they behave concurrently no matter how far away they are from each other.

Day 2: God separated out atmosphere - Earth is the only planet we know so far that has breathable atmosphere. The atmosphere contains multiple layers and each layer plays different important roles. 

1. The lowest layer is Troposphere, even though only 10-15km thick comparing to earth's diameter of 12,742 km, all the weather phenomena (such as wind, cloud, rain, and storms, hydrological cycle, nitrogen cycle, oxygen cycle, etc.) affecting living creatures occur here. 

2. The Stratosphere layer contains the Ozone layer that protects us from excessive UV exposure. 

3. The Mesosphere extends to 80km and any meteoroids reaching this layer will be burnt out. 

4. The Thermosphere (Ionosphere) blocks solar winds by charging the gas particles to create aurora in north/south poles and it also reflects the radio waves back to earth. 

5. The Exposphere extends to 1000km where there is very thin air allowing satellites to fly with minimum friction. The air in the atmosphere contain 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% other gases. Nitrogen is a key building block of DNA. Without air, there would be no life on earth.

Day 3: God created vegetation - Green plants and microbes (not mentioned in the book of Genesis since there is no such word at that time the book of written) absorb sun lights/carbon dioxide and generate oxygen via photosynthesis. During the night time, oxygen is consumed and carbon dioxide is released. Plants reduce the greenhouse gas. They also retain water to keep the earth warm (such as the rainforest) and grab soil together to reduce erosion. Plants provide all the nutrients to all the other living creatures.

Day 4: God revealed heavenly bodies - All the heavenly bodies (sun, moon, planets, stars, etc.) exhibit the splendor of God's creation. Not only that, all of them play important roles in shaping the universe and living creatures we see today. 

NASA's space exploration has reached the edge of the solar system and discovered many bizarre/unexplained phenomena, such as ice volcanos on Enceladous, hexagonal cloud on Saturn, Methane river on Titan, water ice on Mars, etc.  There are also many wonders in the outer space found by Hubble Space Telescope/LIGO, such as black holes in the hubs of most galaxies (the larger the galaxy, the larger the black hole), gravity waves (confirmed Einstein's 1916 prediction), etc. 

It may be that the heavenly bodies (sun, moon, planets, stars, etc.) have already been created from day one but the atmosphere may contain high density of moisture (necessary for the growth of plants) that hid the heavenly bodies form the living creatures on earth.  Once sufficient oxygen was produced by green plants, the sky was cleared and the heavenly bodies became visible.

Day 5: God created fish and birds - they feed on plants/vegetables and they are all amazingly unique and purposeful, do not seem to have been created randomly.  For example, When a Winter Frog is frozen, there is no blood circulation, no heart beat, no breathing, no movement - completely "dead" but when the spring comes, the frog comes alive again. Without any map, millions of tiny Monarch Butterflies migrate over 5,000 km from Canada to Sierra Madre Mountains in Mexico in the fall and then fly back in spring. The honeycombs constructed by honey bees have the most perfect and efficient three-dimensional hexagon structure. By jumping in the air, spiders build large, highly geometric, sticky webs 20 times of their size to capture insects but amazingly they do not get struck in the web themselves.  

Day 6: God created animals and mankind - Again animals and human beings are complex structures with interwoven functions of each parts and sophisticated "feedback loops" (Ref: What Darwin did not know - A Doctor Dissects the Theory of Evolution, by Jeoffrey Simons, 2004.). The amount of information required to build a living creature is bigger than the US Library of Congress and yet it is efficiently stored in a tiny, invisible DNA. It is no brainer that such an intelligent design is different from Darwin's evolution theory.       

​Day 7: God rested. That's how we get 7 days a week and a Sunday break from work.
